' France Conter, chairman of th«- Boys ' Work committee, stated this morning. The field is iiiundateil with sev- ' ernl feet of water as the result of the overflow from the St. Marys river and unless sail boats or other navlj Ration vessels can be provided the ? Rotarians will not have their "work i out" Thursday evening. The directors have therefore arranged to hold ! the regular luncheon meeting at 16:15 o'clock at the Eats restaurant i and every member is urged to be I present. The finishing touches are | being given the Rotary rooms in the , Beery building anti the meeting next week, Muy 24th will be held there. Following the luncheon at the Eats tomorrow evening the regular business nu eting will be held at the Do entur Industrial rooms. a Predicts War Between England and Russia (United Press Service) London. May 16- 1 Special to Daily Democrat) — Prediction that rupt.ir* of the existing trade agreement betw< e ■ England and Russia will probabl- ■ suit in war within a year was mad by Leonid Krassin, Soviet emi mis: ary. in an interview here today. ■ The trade agreement is now throat ened in the sharp exchange of notes between the English and Soviet government . — oi—— MANY CASES OF MEASLES Dr. ,L M. Miler, city health officer announced today that between 125 ami 150 eases of measles are now under 'quarantine in this city. This means 'that a little more than ten per cent of the homes in Decatur are quaran tined, counting 1250 homes altogether. There are several cases of the mumps (and one case of smallpox. Dr. Miller 'stated. The smallpox quarantine was ;lifted today. Dr. Miller requests that I all cases of; ccontgaious disease be re | ported to him at once. Experiments in nutrition during the .la t few years have resulted in the discovery of new principles in nut ition, many of which are important in the proper feeding of dairy cattle, says the United States Department of Agriculture. It has been found that an adequate diet must contain certain mineral ingredients, anti also certain organic compounds whose exact chemical nature is still unknown lr.it .which have been called vitamins. it ■is quite possible to make up a diet from ordinary feedstuffs which will 'contain sufficient protein and energy, and yet be deficient in either minerals or vitamins or both. There is every reason for believing that the whole subject of feeding for the maintenance of high milk yields can be very much simplified as compared with the systems of feeding now practiced, and also great economies introduced into feeding practices, by a systematic study of the vitamin and mineral contents of dairy feeds and of the relation of these to milk production. It seems probable also that the mineral and vitamin contents of dairy feeds may be found to have an important bearing on the breeding vigor, | or reproductive ability, of dairy cattle These studies are under way and re--1 suits of considerable practical importance have been obtained, some of . which show that high-producing dairy cows suffer from a shortage of lime unless they are fed much larger amounts of legume hay than is customary in many parts \of the country, and that there is a vitamin in fresh, green feed which will probably promote the assimilation of lime by milking animals. It has also been shown that there are differences in the' values of protein for feeding dairy cows.

CONRAD H. DOEHRMAN, Administrator. Decatur. Ind.. May 8. 1923. Dore B. Erwin, Atty. 9-16 o MARKETS-STOCKS Daily Report of Local and Foreign Markets New York Stock Exchange New York. May 16—Prices were decidedly irregular at the opening of the stock market today with most of the activity being confined to U. S. Steel which again sold down to 97',, duplicating the low price made in the reaction last Saturday. As a result cf this tendency in steel, numerous other leading issues lost ground from their opening prices which were in many cases better than Tuesday's closing level. In no case, however, including steel common, were early transactions in heavy volume. Over night developments (included rather strong earnings statements. Standard Oil of New Jersey, Vacuum Oil and Cosden all showed substantial improvement in last years returns over those of 1921.
